World Cup Blues return

Tevez in training

City’s remaining World Cup stars returned to Carrington this morning after their well-earned summer break.

David Silva and Jerome Boateng spent their first session training as City players this morning and were joined by new signing Aleksandar Kolarov.

Also returning to work were Carlos Tevez and Nigel de Jong, though the remainder of the senior squad will rest today following their return home from America on Sunday.

The Blues fly out to Germany tomorrow in preparation for the Ferrostaal Cup match with Borussia Dortmund on Wednesday and will play their final pre-season game against Valencia on Saturday at the City of Manchester Stadium.
